All-America tackle Joe Greene, a first-
round draft pick from North Texas State,
was scheduled to play in the game Fri-

Fouts Field Faces Uncertain Future
Pouts Field, home of the Eagles since its dedication in
1952, may be on its way out as the site of home football
games. The 20,000-seat stadium has never seen a full
house in spite of several "Fill Fouts Field" campaigns in
the past. Negotiations to move North Texas' home sched-
ule to Texas Stadium in Irving are under way. The pro-
posed switch is not expected to cut down on the number
of students at the stadium parking lot on moonlit nights.

Shook Cut;
Sonics Call
Lee Winfield
One North Texan got an early ticket
home this week and another got an early
call to go to camp.
Mike Shook, rookie defensive safety
from North Texas State, was cut from
Vince Lombardi's Washington Redskins
Monday. Shook was a 13th-round draft
choice, and was a three-year starter in
the Eagle defensive secondary.
Shook came to North Texas after play-
ing high school football in Germany. Dur-
ing his junior year he led the Missouri
Valley Conference in pass interceptions
with seven.
Another ex-Eagle,
basketball player
Lee Winfield, was
called up two weeks
early by the Seattle
Sonics of the Na-
tional Haskotball As-
sociation. The Sonics
are building a new
team and probably
want to look at their
rookie crop, an NT-
SU coach speculated. Winfield has al-
ready signed a contract with the team.
Winfield transferred to North Texas
from a junior college in St. Louis. The
C-3 Winfield has good speed and tremen-
dous jumping ability.
Earlier this summer two other former
North Texans were cut by pro football
teams. Liitdy Endsley, a defensive end,
was cut by the Kansas City Chiefs and
offensive tackle Fred Washington was
released by the Redskins. Endsley and
Washington spent last, season on the
taxi squads of the two teams.

A new permanent headquarters of the
Ex-Marines Association will allow for
expanded services to ex-servicemen in
the fall.
Members of the association are re-
modeling a house at 413 Fry St. to serve
both as headquarters for the club and as
a counseling center for ex-servicemen.
Association President Bob Schaefers
indicated that 6 to 8 members will live
in the second floor of the headquarters
to heip in the consulting process.
"THE MAJORITY of < x-servicemen
are attending college for the first time
after a three or four year absence,"
Schaefers said "We are providing a
social contact lor people who are Ex-
Marines and also counseling for any
ex-servicemeri,
"The most common problems facing
ex-servicemen involve employment or
scholarship, We can find jobs, arrange
car pools or otherwise assist those hav-
ing financial problems'. For those having
academic problems, the association has
formed a scholarsh'ip ■ 'intm'tee composed
Of our memberc. Free tutoring will tie
available, as will the use of the library
in our own headquarters.
"THE CLUB WILL also sponsor intra-
mural teams and otherwise take an ac-
tive part in campus life If everything
goes according to schedule, our new
building will be operational by the be-
ginning of the fall semester and com-
pletely redone by Nov. 10.
"We'll probably have a booth to pro-
vide information during fall registra-
tion," Schaefers added. "If the new pro-
gram goes well, we hope to help estab-
lish similar organizations at. SMU, Ar-
lington and TCU."
The Ex-Marines Association was form-
ed last fall and was recognized as a
campus organization in May. The assoc-
iation has been active in many campus
projects including a Christmas card drive
during which several hundred cards were
sent to servicemen in Vietnam.
